Definitions
- the present invention concerns the field of lighting apparatuses and in particular refers to a new type of lamp with the capacity of preventing the dispersion of light in undesired directions.
- figure 1 is a perspective view of a lamp according to the present invention
- figure 2 is an axial section view of the lamp of figure 1
- figures 3 and 4 represent perspective exploded views, from respective different angles, of the lamp of the previous figures.
- the lamp according to the present invention has a general structure fully in accordance with conventional lamps. Therefore, it shall, for example and typically, assume the characteristics of a common low-consumption, compact fluorescent lamp with a base housing 1 provided with a lamp plug 3 for connection to a lamp-holder, and a fluorescent tube 2, constituting the actual emission source of the light radiation, on the opposite side to the plug 3.
- the housing 1 contains the electronic circuitry intended for feeding and controlling the lamp, and comprises, again conventionally, a cylindrical portion Ia closed by a plate Ib from which the tube 2 axially projects .
- the tube 2 is enclosed by a hood 4 made from material impermeable to light radiation (typically a plastic material) and generally cylinder-shaped, arranged coaxially about the tube itself.
- the hood 4 has an average diameter sufficient to receive the bulk of the tube 2 so that it fits perfectly. In the illustrated embodiment such a diameter is slightly smaller than that of the cylindrical portion Ia of the housing 1, with which it engages in correspondence with the plate Ib.
- the hood 4 has a grid-shaped structure 4a defined by a plurality of rings 5 joined by thin axial ribs 6 so as to be regularly spaced apart axially.
- the axial ribs 6 are equally angularly spaced, and in a number such as not to create significant obstruction of the space between the rings. Three ribs, like in the illustrated example, normally represent the optimal number.
- the rings 5 are substantially frusto-conical shaped, in the example with decreasing diameter moving away from the housing 1, the pitch between the rings (i.e. the distance between corresponding points of one ring and the next one) , being slightly greater than the thickness (bulk of the ring measured axially) .
- the hood 4 is completed by a disc-shaped cap 7 that, arranged perpendicular to the axis of the lamp and of the grid, closes the free end of the cylindrical grid 4a, i.e. the opposite end to that engaged with the plate Ib of the housing 1.
- the diameter of the cap 7 is greater than the maximum diameter of the rings 5, and substantially corresponds to the diameter of the cylindrical portion Ia of the housing 1.
- the conicity is selected so as to prevent the reflection of light beyond a direction perpendicular to the axis of the lamp, i.e. according to an angle that does not exceed the horizontal in the case of a lamp arranged with vertical axis.
- the conicity can be approximately between 40° and 60°.
- the illustrated solution is clearly suitable for a mounting of the lamp along a vertical axis, with the plug at the bottom, preventing the diffusion of light upwards.
- inverse mounting the same construction can be used should one want to prevent diffusion of light downwards.
- a grid with conicity of the rings 5 that is inverted with respect to the previous example (i.e. with the diameter increasing moving away from the housing) , can be used to screen the diffusion of light towards the housing, and therefore upwards.
- the cap 7 can even be omitted.
- the hood 4 is directly fixed to the cylindrical portion Ia of the housing 1.
- the cylindrical grid 4a can advantageously be made up of a plurality of pieces 41, obtained by moulding, resulting from the division of the grid itself along the generatrices in correspondence with the ribs 6.
- Each piece 41 is therefore gut-like shaped, bordered by respective semi-elements 61 of the axial ribs 6.
- the semi-elements 61 have first ends 61a projecting downwards beyond the first ring 5 at the base of the grid.
- the first ends 61a engage, inserting axially and locking, possibly with the help of a glue, in suitable engagement seats 8 formed perimetrically on the plate Ib.
- the semi-elements 61 On the opposite side the semi-elements 61 have second projecting ends 61b, intended to engage, similarly to what has just been mentioned for the first ends 61a, with engagement seats 9 formed perimetrically on the cap 7, which is thus engaged to complete the assembly of the hood 4.
- the mounting of the hood 4 on the housing 1, with the advantageous method indicated above or with other appropriate systems, can be carried out in the production stage of the lamp.
- the hood 4 can be provided, both in kit and individually, as an accessory intended for application to the lamp by the user.
- the hood can be equipped with an adaptor to allow its application to all lamps, in particular of the low-consumption fluorescent type, available on the market, which have housing diameters slightly variable from one to the other.
- an adaptor can simply assume the shaped of a ring to be engaged coaxially, forcibly or by snap engagement, with the housing 1, making the engagement seats 8 available in suitable position.
- the configuration of the hood and of the relative assembly can vary, according to the configuration of the light source and of the relative base housing, as well as, as already mentioned, according to the direction in which one wishes to avoid dissipation/dispersion of light.
- numerous variants and/or modifications can be brought to the lamp and to the device for preventing the dispersion of light in undesired directions according to the present invention, without for this reason departing from the scope of protection of the invention itself as defined in the appended claims.

Abstract
L'invention concerne une lampe comportant un carter de base (1) dotée de moyens de connexion (3) à un support à lampe, et une source de lumière (2) s'étendant axialement à partir du carter (1), comportant en outre des moyens (4) appropriés pour atténuer la diffusion du rayonnement de lumière dans des directions non souhaitées, lesdits moyens d'atténuation étant reliés au carter (1). De tels moyens d'atténuation comportent, de préférence, un couvercle (4) muni d'une grille généralement cylindrique (4a) disposé coaxialement au carter (1) et enfermant la source de lumière (2), la grille (4a) étant formée d'une pluralité d'anneaux sensiblement frustoconiques (5) axialement superposés, réunis et espacés régulièrement par une pluralité de nervures axiales (6).
